"Why is there space rather than no space? Why is space three-dimensional? Why is space big? We have a lot of room to move around in. How come it's not tiny? We have no consensus about these things. We're still exploring them."
Leonard Susskind"Life is fragile: it thrives only in a narrow range of temperatures between freezing and boiling.
